The great paper debate

In an attempt to save some money we have asked my mom to help us design our wedding invitations. Now if you know my mother...you know she does not lack in the creativity department, but she has also never undertaken a project quite like this.

We've gone back and forth for the past month or so. And my mom has sent us multiple samples to help us decide what design we want to go with for our invites. Luckily Mr. Honda has been extremely patient and helpful (read: very agreeable to what I want) when I ask him whether he prefers this pattern versus that pattern; the darker green paper versus the lighter green paper versus the light sparkly green paper; the pink belly band with the green emblem versus the pink belly band with the pink emblem; etc.

It seems like we've finally been able to settle on a design, now we just need to prepare ourselves for the daunting task ahead of assembling over 100 of these intricate, layered, invites. I think I speak for the both of us when I say that we're just *thrilled* At least it will give us a lot of quality time together :)
